I replaced it with an X-T3. It's like a more refined design and I like how it handles even more. There are one or two things I need to get used to that are a bit different, but it's not a huge problem. The two biggest annoyances are:
1) LCD auto dim. It dims after a ridiculously short time, and it's s stupid feature that saves battery just to get a better CIPA battery rating I'd imagine. Looks better on paper if the camera takes more shots per charge. Activating Boost Mode stops it, but at the expense of battery life. It's a pain in landscapes when you don't need faster AF, although the EVF going from 60fps to 100fps is a great experience. They should allow you to set the dim time as a compromise.
2) Low light focussing. It seems the camera doesn't show the same behaviour when manually focussing in darker situations. The XT-2 appeared to apply more gain and gave a lighter image that was grainy, but easier to see focus with peaking. The X-T3 doesn't appear to do this as well.
Everything else, I love.

LOL! I did fall down a slippery sandstone creek bank that day but not until a few hours after that pic.
Well I hope you didn’t ruin a good pair of jeans and get in trouble at home!

Well I know what that is! Must have still been wet!
Don't you hate it when someone or something photobombs your landscape shot? I guess technically this is a boatscape shot...

That's a super shot you should get that framed.
Lovely dog btw.
Nope, this was shot in the late afternoon, and the paint had been drying since early morning. I didn't touch it or step on it, though, just to be sure!!
I’m behind by months.
Me, too! I have a bad habit of quickly looking through a bunch of images I've shot, picking out a few to process and edit straightaway, with the idea that I'll get to the rest later.....and then somehow "later" never comes! I much prefer shooting photos to editing them!
Same here! I’m a terrible procrastinator!

Yup.Exactly my life!
Another Ferrari 275 GTB from the weekend. If you have a few million to spare I think they're both for sale!
No chance. Spent all my spare cash on camera gear!
I liked the way the light was catching this one leaf.
